I had a lovely moment of nostalgia the other day when something reminded me of the job I had in college at a pastry shop. I started out as a fruit tarter (I think that might have seriously been my job title too, sometimes I wonder when my life when from pretty unusual to pretty

Roasted Tomato Basil Oatmeal (vegan savory oatmeal)
I used to be the kind of person who could have something sweet for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. There were often jokes made about how eating sweet things are what made me so sweet. Ok, ok, sometimes I still make super terrible hilarious jokes like that. Like sometimes I sit on an exercise ball at

Vegan Brussels Sprout and Lentil Salad
I love mason jars. A lot. One could say I collect them, but I think a more accurate description would be that I kind of hoard them. I often can’t resist buying them if I see them at the store. We have a lot of them, but we also use them all the time, so

Vegan Mushroom Thyme Pasta
One upon a time, there was a fair maiden. She loved all creatures, and very much loved her beautiful kingdom. But there was one thing that this fair maiden could not stand. She dreaded times she might encounter it. The mushroom! {insert gasp of horror here!} Oh yes, dear friends, I used to hate mushrooms.

Vegan Sticky Stir Fry
I love vegetables. I could write sonnets about them. If I had any talent for sonnet writing. Food in general just gets me excited. I am one of those people who would gladly sit in a corner at a party and just talk to someone about food for hours. Even if they are just telling

Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal
I am here to tell you I am unapologetically posting a pumpkin recipe on the first official day of autumn. Does this make me a sterotype? Probably, but I don’t care!! Ha!! Man, it feels good to say that. I have been called “quirky” for most of my life. I’m not sure its always in

Vegan Okra Chili
Yesterday two things happened. I wore long sleeves, and I put in the Gilmore Girls DVDs. I realize this probably means nothing you you. To me, this means Fall is coming. I know I get enthusiastic about fall a little early. Like, as soon as September hits I start suggesting we go apple picking, eat

Tomato Mango Black Bean and Corn Salad (vegan)
Don’t. Panic. It’s September. Which is kind of scary. Because.. um, didn’t summer just get here? Am I turning into a stereotypical adult who thinks time flies too fast? I am going to be honest with you here. I am totally fine with being a sterotype. I think that when I do yoga, slather on

Deconstructed Vegetarian Pot Sticker Bowls
May I nerd out for a minute? I love the Harry Potter books. In my opinion they are some the best books ever written. I caught up on the series right before the last book came out. So naturally, when the book came out, I not only had to go buy it immediately upon release,

Vegan BLT Salad
Usually by this time of the summer I am over salads. Because I tend to eat them a lot. That is not the case this year. I don’t know what it is about salads that have me so hooked, but I think I am going to go straight from salad obsession to soup obsession as

Grilled Potato and Heirloom Tomato Salad
This summer has been wonderful. August is here already (when did that happen!?) which is arguably the best month of the year for amazing, delicious produce (heirloom tomatoes!). Though I think in a month I am most likely going to be arguing that September is the best month for produce (apples!). It is not because

Vegan Classic Coleslaw (with Cashew Mayo)
I have a confession to make. It seems wrong to admit that despite this being the absolute best time of the year for amazing, delicious, local, beautiful produce… I find myself not as motivated to spend a ton of time in the kitchen. Gasp! Now that I have that off my chest (phew!), I have
